@mods can we make an official logo for DFB of this?

Another idea for the patch.

Not for this website but just for the sake of sarcastic humor:
> NATIONAL BOARD OF UNQUALIFIED & INEXPERIENCED DEFENCE ENTHUSIASTS.
> INDIAN DEFENCE MATTERS KEYBOARD WARRIOR DIVISION.
> INDIAN COUNCIL OF DEFENCE ARMCHAIR EXPERTS.
> DEPARTMENT OF ONLINE OFFENCE ON DEFENCE.
> ONLINE REFLEXIVE RESPONSE ASSOCIATION.
> INDIAN ANTI-SOCIAL MEDIA OFFENCE COMMAND.
> DEFENCE MATTERS ARGUEMENT BATALLION.

Anyone has any gupt-sutra for the diameter of AD-1 and Kusha?
@fire starter @Fatalis @Adm_Kenobi @dfi_pk

It's bit costly making new rocket motors as you've to make everything from moulds to mandrel from scratch so people sometimes tend to use existing rocket motors like in case of K-15/Shaurya/Pralay/SMART or Prahaar motor in Ashwin.
So by that logic Kusha-M1 might repurpose Barak-1's motor and AD-1, idk Prahaar maybe? But it's not conclusive

A good thread with relevant information:

Project Kusha / Programme LRSAM / PGLRSAM

DRDO has been working on a very long range Surface to Air missile to meet the demands of Indian Armed Forces. Previously, the rumors were that it will be known as XRSAM and will have only one missile with ranges upto 300km. Then the information got updated and it was called as Extended Range...

Also,
Kusha M1 main body - 350mm dia
Booster - 250mm dia
second stage- Both the KV and booster will feature TVC.
Length: <7m long
<500mm when folded
Around 670kg

Not sure about AD-1 but my guess around ~ 450-650mm.

What???

Ok I admit I said something I know nothing about. I know this is how it works for the Federal Reserve system in the US. My understanding was it's the same for India, as the currency is basically backed by nothing (just like the American dollar).

@londonparistokyo ,
just curious, now that you have received elaborate replies on poverty and cleanliness.
will your basic instinct to decry on all things India subside ?

It'll subside because I was treated with respect for once here. My disappointment will never go away, but my harsh criticisms will subside.

do remember, republic of India and hillary clinton were born in the same year.
that's how young this country in latest iteration is.

Tbh there is something really inorganic about how you convey yourself and almost sky high level of ignorance. You would expect such behavior from some 40 year old white guy who never got into college and rents his extra property in airbnb.

Grok's idea of "40 year old white guy who never got into college and rents his extra property in airbnb"


"40 year old Indian guy who never got into college and rents his extra property in airbnb"

Frankly the kind discourse I finally received fixed a lot of my angst. You guys can say anything you want and I won't be upset. Lol

This shows how things are pathetic in our nation

But even then wtf, what if the child is born with underdeveloped organs or physical disability even the life of the mother is at risk

Thanks Mate

Kusha M1 main body - 350mm dia
Booster - 250mm dia

I guess you mean the booster's 350mm and the "dart" is 250mm.

Both the KV and booster will feature TVC.

Obviously, TVC on booster so that it can turn as soon as it clears the launcher resulting in a shorter minimum range.
On main missile to increase the maneuverability
